Traits of transgenic Atropa belladonna doubly transformed with different Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains

Hairy root cultures of Atropa belladonna L. were established by infection either with Agrobacterium rhizogenes ATCC 15834 or MAFF 03-01724, and transgenic plants were obtained from both hairy root cultures. Doubly transformed roots were induced by re-infection of the leaf segments of transgenic Atropa belladonna plants (A. rhizogenes 15834) with MAFF 03-01724. Shoots and viviparous leaves were regenerated from the doubly transformed roots. The genetic transformation was determined by the opine assay (agropine, mannopine and/or mikimopine) and polymerase chain reaction. Physiological changes and tropane alkaloid biosynthesis in the hairy roots (singly and doubly transformed) were investigated. The alkaloid content in the doubly transformed root strain was intermediate as compared to the root strains which were singly transformed. On the other hand endogenous IAA levels in doubly transformed roots were significantly decreased compared to both singly transformed roots.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - IAA indoleacetic acid - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid - PCR polymerase chain reaction - t-ZR trans-zeatin     

A simple classification of the complex parts of vascular plants

Four operational morphological units are defined to characterize 'typical' stems, leaves, roots and hairS. Any complex part can be classified among these OMUs by a graphical representation or by a quadruplet suitable for computer-aided analyses. Thirty-nine examples are given, suggesting a continuous view of plant morphology.

Effects of light and regulators on senescence-related changes in soluble proteins in detached oat (Avena sativa L.) leaves

The rate of senescence and the two-dimensional pattern of soluble proteins from detached oat leaves senescing in either darkness or light were analyzed, and compared to those of leaves in which senescence was delayed by application of the cytokinin benzyladenine or enhanced through the action of abscisic acid.Senescence of detached leaves in light did not differ significantly from senescence in attached leaves on intact plants. In darkness, protein was lost at a higher rate than in light, but several individual proteins showed relative increases. Notably, proteins previously characterized as high-molecular-weight proteins and senescence-associated proteins (Klerk et al., 1992) increased. Changes observed during incubation in light or darkness appeared to be related to this condition rather than the rate or progress of senescence. Cytokinins delayed and abscisic acid accelerated the changes in protein pattern compared to water. Beside changes previously identified in leaves senescing on the plant, detached leaves show alterations that reflect their condition of incubation rather than their developmental progress.Abbreviations 2D-PAG two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - ABA abscisic acid - BA N⁶-benzyladenine - BSA bovine serum albumin - EDTA ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid - IEF isoelectric focusing - Rubisco ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate - Tris tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane     

Low temperature phototransformations of protochlorophyll(ide) in etiolated leaves

By methods of difference and derivative spectroscopy it was shown that in etiolated leaves at 77 K three photoreactions of P650 protochlorophyllide take place which differ in their rates and positions of spectral maxima of the intermediates formed in the process: P650R668, P650R688, and P650R697. With an increase of temperature up to 233 K, in the dark, R688 and R697 are transformed into the known chlorophyllide forms C695/684 and C684/676, while R668 disappears with formation of a shorter wavelength form of protochlorophyllide with an absorption maximum at 643–644 nm.Along with these reactions, at 77 K phototransformations of the long-wave protochlorophyllide forms with absorption maxima at 658–711 nm into the main short-wave forms of protochlorophyllide are observed. At 233 K in the dark this reaction is partially reversible. This process may be interpreted as a reversible photodisaggregation of the pigment in vivo.The mechanism of P650 reactions and their role in the process of chlorophyll photobiosynthesis are discussed.Abbreviations P650 protochlorophyll(ide) with absorption maximum at 650 nm - C697/684 chlorophyllide with fluorescence maximum at 695 nm and absorption maximum at 684 nm - R697 intermediate with absorption maximum at 697 nm     

茶叶中总硒含量及其影响因素的研究

茶叶中硒素总量测定结果表明：土壤含硒量的高低是直接影响茶叶中硒的总量。茶树根、茎、叶、果中均有硒元素,叶片是茶硒积累的主要器官,尤其是老叶,其含量是嫩叶的几倍．茶树品种间含量的差异显著,最大差异达10倍以上．毛茶加工的成品茶含硒量受加工技术措施影响较大,其不同等级的含硒量与级别没有线性关系．     

The phylogenetic position of taxaceae based on 18S rRNA sequences

The evolutionary position of the yew family, Taxaceae, has been very controversial. Some plant taxonomists strongly advocate excluding Taxaceae from the conifer order and raising its taxonomic status to a new order or even class because of its absence of seed cones, contrary to the case in the majority of conifers. However, other authors believe that the Taxaceae are not fundamentally different from the rest of the conifers except in that they possess the most reduced solitary-ovule cones. To resolve the controversy, we have sequenced the 18S rRNA genes from representative gymnosperms: Taxus mairei (Taxaceae), Podocarpus nakaii (Podocarpaceae), Pinus luchuensis (Pinaceae), and Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgoales). Our phylogenetic analysis of the new sequence data with the published 18S rRNA sequence of Zamia pumila (a cycad) as an outgroup strongly indicates that Taxus, Pinus, and Podocarpus form a monophyletic group with the exclusion of Ginkgo and that Taxus is more closely related to Pinus than to Podocarpus. Therefore, Taxaceae should be classified as a family of Coniferales. Our finding that Taxaceae, Pinaceae, and Podocarpaceae form a clade contradicts both the view that the uniovulate seed of Taxaceae is a primitive character and the view that the Taxaceae are descendants of the Podocarpaceae. Rather, the uniovulate seed of Taxaceae and that of some species of Podocarpus appear to have different origins, probably all reduced from multiovulate cones. Correspondence to: W.-H. Li
